Kim Rodrigues Poet Verse

Tiger Eye Quartz

a flick of your lighter
you started this fire
don’t blow it out

my fine hair cerise
my cheeks in blaze
and tiger eye quartz

the heat heaves my chest
and burns below the waist

only the drip of sweat
can cool this amorous fête

and the touch of satin sheets
so sensual
as we give ourselves over

to teasing of the grasses
sweeping through the plain
and scents of honeysuckle
mixed with a masculine scent

the eye of the tiger
ripples and roars
helpless yet
